Oulton and Woodlesford Neighbourhood Forum has been designated and is now the official organisation charged with drawing up a plan for the villages for at least the next 15 years. This plan, if approved, will become part of planning law and regulate future development.

It is important that everyone who lives or works in Oulton or Woodlesford has an opportunity to contribute to the plan. O&WNF are therefore holding an Open Meeting. Please attend, they need your input and support. Tea/coffee and biscuits will be provided.
